If you want to allow the user to select multiple items, you should append
'[]' to the end of the name of your select.

<select name="color[]" size="3" multiple>

Now when you get the value, it will be an array of the items they
selected.

You may run into a problem with your hidden input type on the second page
- I'm not sure how PHP will handle things because your value will now be
an array.  You may want to write out a hidden field for each of the users
selections - like:

<input type="hidden" name="color[]" value="one">
<input type="hidden" name="color[]" value="two">
<input type="hidden" name="color[]" value="three">
